LB have you tried the book keeping route. what about putting an advert out to assist with payroll year end? a short term  solution but could be worth a try

Accountancy is a real bitch at the minute. This time last year you could have walked out of your job and picked up a new one straight away. Now there's hardly anything and when you do have something, you're in serious competition.
The other thing is, if you're a technician, you'll probably be competing with qualified accountants and recruiting employers will be 'enhancing the criteria' to shortlist.

I think my job is fairly safe at the minute, but I've had to take a 10% pay cut. It's shit, but you don't have any options really - there's nowhere else to go and employers know it.

It is a real bitch out there at the min esp with these ones from KPMG getting the road lot of qualified people looking work. The role I have the interview for is more Accounts admin involving PAYE, VAT and invoicing etc a lot of qualified people wont look at this sort of 'dirty' work. Chatting to a fella this afternoon as well and looks like i'll have another interview next week in Belfast so fingers crossed I get something sorted soon.

dont wanta jinx anythin but the woman said to me today that 'you'll be back in work a week and you'll be complaining that you need time off'  :D thought it was funny.

Hope everyone out there realises how precious there job is rite now
